Description
Hello,
I've just updated to Version 0.7.1 (870) and I'm experiencing a lot of hangs, crashes and instability.
The preview pane often won't scroll and this will produce crashes. Scrolling the Editor pane won't scroll the preview pane.
Reverting back to Version 0.6.4 (786) seems to give more stability.
OS: 10.11.6

Research direction
Start by reproducing the preview-pane scrolling and Editor-to-preview scrolling problems on macOS 10.11.6 with Version 0.7.1 (870), then compare behavior with Version 0.6.4 (786). Done means the panes scroll as expected without hangs or crashes.
